MIL made us a gluten-free pie today from the pie crust recipe in The Gluten-Free Gourmet (Comfort Foods) by Bette Hagman and it was amazing!!! The crust is flaky and SO yummy!!! Even picky DS liked it and said it was better than "normal" apple pie! He wants a pumpkin pie next! LOL!

So, if you are looking for a good pie crust, this one rocks!! I was very impressed. :)

Sounds yummy, perfect for fall apples. I roll the dough out with mine and let my daughter make shapes out of cookie cutters on the top of the upper pie crust.

Which recipe was it? I have the book and I'd be glad to post it.

Im assuming this is the one :)

Bette hagman's pie crust recipe (featherlight vinegar pastry)

2 1/2 cups featherlight mix

1 rounded teaspoon xantham gum

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 tablespoon sugar

3/4 cup shortening

1 tablespoon rice vinegar

1/4 cup liquid egg substitue or 1 egg beaten

4 tablespoons ice water

Sweet rice flour for rolling

Blend flour mix, xantham gum, salt and sugar. Cut in shortening until coarse crumbs form. In a small nowl beat the vinegar and egg together.

Stir the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients with a fork and keep blending until the dough forms a ball. Work a little with your hands to obtain a smooth texture. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes or more before rolling out.

Divide teh dough in half and roll out on waxed paper dusted with sweet rice flour. Place in a 9 inch pie tin. For a baked single crust, prick the pastry with a fork on sides and bottom. Bake at 450 degrees for 10 to 12 minutes. Makes enough pastry for a 9 inch 2-crust pie or 2 pastry shells.

Optional- Add 1/4 teaspoon of cinnamon and 1/4 tsp nutmeg to dry ingredients. Substitute orange juice for the ice water.

Featherlight mix recipe-

rice flour 3 cups

tapioca flour 3 cups

cornstarch 3 cups

potato flour 3 tbsps

Kim- I hope you dont mind I posted it :)

Thanks!!! I don't mind at all! I have been very busy this week, so am just now checking in. That does look like the recipe (MIL still has my book), but I thought it said apple cider vinegar instead of rice, I could be wrong. I know that Bette has this recipe in several of her books, though, so she may have switched it up.

I still am amazed with how awesome this crust is. Even 3 days later it is still awesome!!

Hmm, you know I looked to see if there was a variation for this recipe and couldnt find one in this book (2004 published) but I do remember a pastry recipe that had apple cider vinegar in it. I do have another one of her books and annalise roberts so it could be either one also. The only other one I noticed in here was a cereal recipe, a nut recipe, and a graham cracker recipe. Either way I cant wait to try it :)

      Protein or fat?

      By Jsingh · Posted

      Hi,  I care for my seven year old daughter with Celiac. After watching her for months, I have figured out that she has problem with two kinds of fats- animal fat and cooking oils. It basically makes her intestine sore enough that she feels spasms when she is upset. It only happens on days when she has eaten more fat than her usual every day diet. (Her usual diet has chia seeds, flaxseeds, and avocado/ pumpkin seeds for fat and an occasional chicken breast.) I stopped using cooking oils last year, and when I reintroduced eggs and dairy, both of which I had held off for a few months thinking it was an issue of the protein like some Celiac patients habe mentioned to be the case, she has reacted in the same fashion as she does with excess fats. So now I wonder if her reaction to dairy and eggs is not really because of protein but fat.   I don't really have a question, just wondering if anyone finds this familiar and if it gets better with time.  Thank you.

      High Cost of Gluten-Free Foods

      By Chanda Richard · Posted

      Hello, My name is Chanda and you are not the only one that gose through the same things. I have found that what's easiest for me is finding a few meals each week that last. I have such severe reactions to gluten that it shuts my entire body down. I struggle everyday with i can't eat enough it feels like, when I eat more I lose more weight. Make sure that you look at medication, vitamins and shampoo and conditioner also. They have different things that are less expensive at Walmart.

      Frequent nausea after gluten-free diet

      By petitojou · Posted

      Thank you so much! I saw some tips around the forum to make a food diary and now that I know that the community also struggles with corn, egg and soy, the puzzle pieces came together! Just yesterday I tried eating eggs and yes, he’s guilty and charged. Those there are my 3 combo nausea troublemakers. I’m going to adjust my diet ☺️ Also thank you for the information about MCAS! I’m from South America and little it’s talked about it in here. It’s honestly such a game changer now for treatment and recovery. I know I’m free from SIBO and Candida since I’ve been tested for it, but I’m still going to make a endoscopy to test for H. Pylori and Eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE). Thank you again!! Have a blessed weekend 🤍

      Unusual bright yellow but odourless discharge

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Yes, I, too, have osteoporosis from years of malabsorption, too.  Thiamine and magnesium are what keep the calcium in place in the bones.  If one is low in magnesium, boron, selenium, zinc, copper, and other trace minerals, ones bone heath can suffer.  We need more than just calcium and Vitamin D for strong bones.  Riboflavin B 2, Folate B 9 and Pyridoxine B 6 also contribute to bone formation and strength.   Have you had your thyroid checked?  The thyroid is important to bone health as well.  The thyroid uses lots of thiamine, so a poorly functioning thyroid will affect bone heath.

      That sounds so very likely in my case! I will absolutely ask my doctor on my next bone check coming up in March... Thanks a lot!
